Been a member of this very forum for quite a while but have made very few posts however the postman dropped by with a little delivery earlier on and I felt the need to share some pics with you guys on here as my wife is sick of me talking about it for the past 2 hours.
I've only had a really quick play at lowish volumes tonight but what really great cab makers Zilla are. Paul is a top bloke who is very knows his stuff. Its loaded with 65 creambacks, they seem like a very good speaker but a good run at band volume tomorrow will tell more.
Cheers.

Nice, I love Paul's cabs.
Very interested to hear how people are getting on with the Creambacks. I've got a vague plan to change the speakers in one of my Zilla 2x12 to those....needs to be later in the year though when I've got the funds.
Will let you know how it sounds after a good test run tonight.
If I'm honest I was expecting more but they really haven't broken in properly yet so it would be unfair of me to say too much.
I found them a little harsher than I expected but after a bit of eq tweaking I found something I liked a little better but didn't have a wow moment that I thought I would do. I was a using a Jet City 22h and have since read that some users have found SLO type circuits to not gel too well with this speaker but as I said they are far from broken and I am hoping they will mellow.
Dependant on gig I swop between using a Jet City 22h, DSL 50 and JVM so it will be interesting to see how the Marshalls take to this speaker. Hoping to try over the weekend. Once they have a few more hours on them it will be interesting to see how they have developed.
In summary, the bottom end is massive but they was just a bit of a harshness in the upper mid/high frequencies that bugged me. I had just unplugged from an early 80s JCM 800 4x12 with original G12-65s which sound very good with the Jet City so that could have had a bid affect on the way I perceived the tone.
Will let you know how I'm getting on.
I've been advised this speaker when mentioned JCA50H actually it might be the case that they're not broken in yet (hopefully) so please keep this us posted.
